محققون دوليون: إسرائيل ترتكب «جرائم إبادة» في غزة

While the occupying army continues its war of extermination against the Palestinians in Gaza, a UN-affiliated international commission of inquiry has accused Israel of committing acts of genocide in the besieged territory,

the commission stated in a statement today (Tuesday) that Israel has destroyed the educational system in Gaza and has devastated more than half of the religious and cultural sites in the area, as part of a widespread assault against the Palestinian people.

It reported that Israeli occupation forces committed "war crimes and crimes against humanity" during the assault, confirming that most hospitals and health centers are out of service due to Israeli airstrikes and the tightened blockade. The international commission's report confirmed that most schools were damaged, including schools that were sheltering displaced persons and were bombed by Israel.

Previous UN and journalistic estimates indicated that approximately 60% of the Palestinian territory was destroyed during the war that erupted on October 7, 2023.

The United Nations, the European Union, and the World Bank estimated that the needs for the reconstruction of the Gaza Strip after the war exceed $50 billion. The preliminary assessment of damages and necessary needs highlighted the requirement of $53.2 billion for recovery and reconstruction over the next ten years, including $20 billion in the first three years.

The reconstruction process of the territory will require years to work on removing unexploded ordnance and millions of tons of rubble.
